Subject: Flat file to Excel....but it's got more than 255 columns!
VFP9SP2/Win7Pro/SDF fixed width file
I've got a flat file that needs to be translated to an Excel file.
Traditional program put it into a cursor and then via automation did
copy/paste into Excel. Problem is now that there are more than 255
columns (410 to be exact) so using a VFP cursor/table won't work. I
was just doing direct string manipulations and insertting right to the
Excel cells, but it's a SLOW process. It works, but I'm always looking
for a better way.
Suggestions for approach?
tia!
